Theme: Definition

As the Sun in Aries pulls away from Neptune, ones personal boundaries and sense of self solidify. And yet relationships are harder to navigate. Avoid being judgmental with yourself and others at this time as Venus and Saturn are a strained partnership. On the one hand Venus in Pisces overflows with generosity and love and on the other Saturnian energy says there are practical and real boundaries necessary for commitments. With the gibbous Moon in Leo you can review your achievements thus far with a view to improving outcomes, while remembering to give praise where praise is due.

We are trying to propose another politic of love where it’s not about possession or donation or eternal love or death or eternity or whatever. It’s more about love as a dynamic that can only grow.~Celine Sciamma

Theme: A change of seasons

Welcome to Spring or Autumn wherever you are, and the entry of the Sun into Aries. It’s a dynamic, changing time with new initiatives and start-ups of all kinds. The energy of Aries asks us to have courage to forge new paths as individuals. It’s also about new beginnings. The energy of Aries is more self-absorbed than other signs as it seeks to individuate. The challenge of this sign is to bring others along in your own journey, which you can do so long as it’s empowering of others. With Venus conjunct Saturn you are being asked to be more disciplined in your relationships with others, while learning from your mistakes.

The mind is devoid of mind, For the nature of mind is clear light.~The Buddha

With the planet of communication and connections, Mercury, conjunct the north node and Chiron there is an opportunity for insights into how you can best achieve productive communications with others. By examining your communication style you can remedy any poor communication strategies you have and heal long-standing wounds around being misunderstood. The Moon moves into Leo today bringing a focus on creativity, play, pride – and the antidotes to pride including equanimity.

Theme: Saying Goodbye and Saying Hello

As the Sun in Pisces concludes it’s passage through this sign its time to finish a cycle and dissolve old habit patterns and feel connected to something beyond the self. The Neptune conjunction to the Sun helps with this task. In a few days we begin another cycle as Sun moves into Aries and new beginnings beckons. Take the next two days to tap into the deep river of compassion and capacity for reflection that the energy of Pisces invites us to do. It truly is the sign of inter-being. The Moon in Cancer strengthens our sensitivity including our imagination.

The most important thing is, even if we’re apart, I’ll always be with you.~Winnie the Pooh

Theme:  Closeness and Nurturing

The maternal and nurturing side of our nature is predominant today as the Moon moves into Cancer and is also in positive aspect to both Venus and Saturn. Venus of course heightens the feminine aspect of the Moon and magnifies our ability to receive and give to others. Saturn stabilizes our emotions and allows us to commit to heartfelt responsibilities. Due to the Piscean influence this occurs not only on a personal level, but a global level engendering inclusive caring for many beings.

“ Our sense of joy is the kind of joy that is born of the mind of compassion, the kind of joy that appears in the mind with the commitment to benefit beings at any cost.”

Theme: Many Drops form the Ocean

A sense of inner tension may arise due to instinctive feelings versus self identity. This can be challenging but a trine between moon and Mars can bring out more courage and confidence, allowing you to take the initiative on projects. You may even find yourself in a leadership role if the opportunity presents. Your ability to inspire others through communication is apparent.

“ Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”
Mother Theresa

Theme :  Moved to Action

Emotions and communication are front and center today with several aspects. Pluto intensifies the Moon, bringing passion and intensity to our communications. The Moon is challenged by Saturn and Venus to take a close look at our love commitments, which may be on a personal level although with Sun and Neptune conjunct the focus may be on universal love. As we view the suffering of so many we are inspired to compassionate action. The impulse to act is strong with Mars and Uranus energized.

“ Words and thoughts concerning compassionate action that are not put into practice are like beautiful flowers that are colorful but have no fragrance.”

Theme: Moving along

The Moon moves into chatty Gemini creating communication pathways. Short trips and communications with siblings are emphasized. With the planet ruling communication, Mercury in the direct-talking sign of Aries be prepared to stand your ground. The Sun’s proximity to Neptune means that boundaries are less defined and you are more in touch with non-ordinary reality. As you are more sensitive it’s also important to be mindful of what you put in your body.

Knowledge is simply a terrible ocean we must cross, and hope that wisdom lies on the other side.~Paolo Bacigalupi

Theme: Magnifying issues

The Moon in Taurus is sweeping towards the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction today magnifying the energy of these two planets. Be flexible and circumspect – if you can. It’s a bit like patting your head and rubbing your tummy at the same time! The Moon in Taurus likes stability which is not what this conjunction conjures up. Jupiter expands horizons and Uranus revolutionizes issues where change needs to occur. Elsewhere the Sun in Pisces is moving closer to Neptune focusing our attention on spiritual matters.

From praise comes joy, from joy – strength, from strength – virtue, from virtue – purity and from purity comes realization of one’s full potential.~Leon MacClaren
